Speaker 1: It's the best Bits of the week with Morgan Number two.
Speaker 1: What is of y'all so happy? It's another weekend and
Speaker 1: I got to be hanging out with y'all. Right here,
Speaker 1: this is best bit's just bits, but part one is
Speaker 1: personally my favorite part of getting to do this podcast.
Speaker 1: I get to bring on a show member and talk
Speaker 1: to him about whatever I want to talk to him about,
Speaker 1: and you know, some guidelines, but things that I come
Speaker 1: up with. This weekend, I talked to Amy, and I
Speaker 1: really hope you go listen to it, because not only
Speaker 1: did we discuss the craziest thing that I've seen while driving,
Speaker 1: and this tops the list of pretty much any story
Speaker 1: I've ever heard, we also talked about our stupidest accomplishments
Speaker 1: that we've had recently. And you know, I did get
Speaker 1: a little vulnerable about my dating life and something that
Speaker 1: I have had to learn and it's not been easy
Speaker 1: for me. I'll just say that, And of course some
Speaker 1: fun things with taking text messages out of context. That's
Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say. Yeah, I'll leave that right there,
Speaker 1: But until then, let's get started. I'm so excited to
Speaker 1: bring y'all some of the biggest months from the week.
Speaker 1: Number seven, if you win the super Bowl, each players
Speaker 1: paid one hundred and fifty seven thousand dollars as the winner. Wow,
Speaker 1: and lose the super Bowl, you're paid eighty two thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: That's still good. It's still good. But I'm saying you
Speaker 1: want to win the super Bowl, Yeah, that's one hundred
Speaker 1: fifty grand. That's the incentive. So even if you barely play,
Speaker 1: if you're on the team, yeah, if you're one of
Speaker 1: the people who who are on the roster, you get
Speaker 1: paid because you got to stay ready. Yeah. And if
Speaker 1: you stay ready, you never got to get ready. That's right,
Speaker 1: that's right. So number one, number two, a lot of
Speaker 1: different factors when it comes to buying a commercial for
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. This average price for thirty seconds is
Speaker 1: seven million dollars. And let's not be the ones that
Speaker 1: come on to go moon. The commercials. Sugged commercials haven't
Speaker 1: really been a thing for seven eight years. They do
Speaker 1: try to put better commercials on, but now we're in
Speaker 1: the land of everything's funny everywhere, all the time. Things
Speaker 1: are compelling all the time. TikTok other commercials are funny,
Speaker 1: viral campaigns that it's just it's not like they're going
Speaker 1: to hold off in June. We got this great idea,
Speaker 1: it's gonna go virals hold up for the super Bowl. No,
Speaker 1: they do it. Then they do new stuff on the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and the commercials are fun. Sometimes they're like, Wow,
Speaker 1: it's funny to get see the celebrity. But let's not
Speaker 1: beat the show that comes on and goes. The commercial suck.
Speaker 1: It's just not that environment anymore. But they do. So
Speaker 1: they're not as good. Yeah, they're not as good. They're
Speaker 1: actually better. But everything else around it all year long
Speaker 1: is better, which makes it seem not as good. Bud Wiser,
Speaker 1: that's tissue holding on to nostalgia. Boy, yeah, that's pretty good.
Speaker 1: The NFL doesn't pay bands or artists for performing at
Speaker 1: the halftime show none. So you do the show, you
Speaker 1: don't get paid. The artists aren't making a dime, but
Speaker 1: they do at least get their expenses and production costs covered.
Speaker 1: But they don't make anything. It's all just for promotion,
Speaker 1: so they do it. The players in the super Bowl
Speaker 1: get fancy cars to drive week of the game. That's
Speaker 1: every player on both teams in the super Bowl gets
Speaker 1: a very fancy loaner drive around all week. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a lot of loaners. You're talking about fifty three man
Speaker 1: rosters each. It's one hundred and six cars plus coaches. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like how many of those exotic dealerships are there and
Speaker 1: there are no cars on any lot there? And then
Speaker 1: I'm sure they have rules like you can't drive risky
Speaker 1: the week of the Super Bowl, right, I don't think
Speaker 1: that's in the rule book, no risky driving. A single
Speaker 1: ticket for admission to Super Bowl one between the Chiefs
Speaker 1: and Packers costs six dollars if you wanted to go
Speaker 1: to that game and that game did not sell out.
Speaker 1: The average cost this year is nine thousand dollars. You
Speaker 1: can get them very very low for around four to
Speaker 1: five thousand, and if you want to get one of
Speaker 1: those suites, it's half million bucks. Oh man. And if
Speaker 1: you want to wait till halftime, they say it's around
Speaker 1: two to three thousand bucks. Still, if you want to
Speaker 1: get a ticket from a scalpoar a half time, oh
Speaker 1: well yeah, this is it's the only time where the
Speaker 1: scalpers won't sell last minute because the games starting, because
Speaker 1: they know they can pretty much sell all the way
Speaker 1: to a half time that's bananas. And then when it
Speaker 1: comes to the rings, everybody on the winning roster, coaches, executives,
Speaker 1: practice squad players, everybody gets super Bowl ring. The players
Speaker 1: in the practice squad usually get one that's a lesser value,
Speaker 1: but it's still a ring. But the owner of the
Speaker 1: teams can also award rings to whomever they choose, meaning
Speaker 1: people that were just instrumental or gave good advice or
Speaker 1: a great fans. Each franchise pays for one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty Super Bowl rings in the league also chips in,
Speaker 1: so it's five six million bucks in rings. That's probably
Speaker 1: something they're happy to pay. And those rings have a
Speaker 1: lot of diamonds. A lot of diamonds are really cool.
Speaker 1: The Lombardi Trophy, which you win, weighs seven pounds, but
Speaker 1: if you were to melt it down, it's fifty thousand
Speaker 1: dollars worth of material right there. The NFL won't hold
Speaker 1: Super Bowls in cold stadiums now. That'd being said. They
Speaker 1: did play in New York and it got pretty lucky. Yep,
Speaker 1: So that that was the thing until they decided to
Speaker 1: play in New York and everybody's like, what if it's
Speaker 1: a snow Super Bowl. Then it turns out it was
Speaker 1: actually fine. Yeah, but for the most part, it's in
Speaker 1: Florida or Arizona, Arizona this year, or New Orleans. But
Speaker 1: they're a dome. Yeah, Muslim are domes. They try to
Speaker 1: make sure that it's either warm Weather city when I
Speaker 1: went was into Miami or if it's in Indianapolis where
Speaker 1: I went, it was a dome. Each team gets one
Speaker 1: hundred and eight footballs. That's it. Practice and play, that's it.
Speaker 1: No more footballs because they've all got to be pre
Speaker 1: screened before because some people deflate them. And they got
Speaker 1: to have that Super Bowl logo on there. Okay, you
Speaker 1: guys want two different directions. Yeah, and then finally more
Speaker 1: than one hundred million people watched Super Bowl every year. Now,
Speaker 1: whenever we get to the Super Bowl halftime shows, can
Speaker 1: you think of a halftime show that had country artists only?
Speaker 1: And has that ever happened? Amy, I cannot think of
Speaker 1: one lunchbox. I'm not a big halftime guy, so I
Speaker 1: don't even remember. No Eddie, not in our lifetime. So
Speaker 1: here are some people who performed at the Super Bowl
Speaker 1: National anthem. Charlie Pride seventy four, Garth Brooks National Anthem
Speaker 1: ninety three. That was a controversial one where he's like,
Speaker 1: I'm not singing until you show my music video and
Speaker 1: they're like no, the super Bowl is about to start,
Speaker 1: Like yeah, but I need you to show you know,
Speaker 1: we shall we shall be free. Yeah. And so they
Speaker 1: even went to the stands to ask John bon Jovi
Speaker 1: if he'd come out and sing it last minute, and
Speaker 1: then guards are like, no, this video means a lot
Speaker 1: I need. And so they played the video before the
Speaker 1: super Bowl. So baller, that's so ball Here we go
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four, a halftime show that was all country.
Speaker 1: What it was called? I thought they had I thought
Speaker 1: they had named for it. But we had Clint Black,
Speaker 1: Tanya Tucker, Travis Tritt and the Judds. A nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: four all country Super Bowl halftime show. Since then, they
Speaker 1: haven't done that. Jewel has sang the national anthem, Faith Hill,
Speaker 1: Shania Twain popped up in at once, Faith Hill, did
Speaker 1: America Beautiful, Carrie Underwood National Anthem, on and on and on.
Speaker 1: But that's the deal. Chris Stapleton will sing it on Sunday,
Speaker 1: the national Anthem, looking forward to it. I don't have
Speaker 1: anything going on specifically, especially or just watch the game
Speaker 1: until I like it. But I haven't. There's no party,
Speaker 1: no gathering you No, I wouldn't. I didn't even know
Speaker 1: if you were going to one. Oh yeah no, I
Speaker 1: hadn't thought about it yet. Maybe Eddie. No, I want
Speaker 1: to watch the game with my kids. So no party.
Speaker 1: We're gonna definitely gonna have a spread though, wings, pizza, lunchbox.
Speaker 1: I got my options open. I like that. Why am
Speaker 1: I getting in there? Yeah that's good. Okay, say that
Speaker 1: in high school? Like, what are you gonna do for
Speaker 1: I got my options open? Yeah nothing? What would I do?
Speaker 1: Go to work and go home be sad? Okay? I
Speaker 1: hope everybody and hey, draft kings it up. I'm telling
Speaker 1: you right now, I'm gonna telling you goin market. The
Speaker 1: Chiefs are gonna win the game. What's it the end over?
Speaker 1: You said it? I said it. They're even the underdog.
Speaker 1: But you heard what I said, and I said what
Speaker 1: I heard in the way out of the podcast. If
Speaker 1: it's wrong? Do you have Chris Stapleton's number? Could you
Speaker 1: text him? Text him over? I could? How long? I don't?
Speaker 1: I don't text Chris? Okay? Do I have his number. Yes,
Speaker 1: but I don't really just go like, what up, buddy,
Speaker 1: Well this would be a good time too. M hmmm,
Speaker 1: how long roughly is gonna is your national anthem gonna be? Roughly?
Speaker 1: Do I have time to go to the bathroom? Or
Speaker 1: do I not have time to go in the bathroom? More?
Speaker 1: Let's say two minutes and he only had two minutes
Speaker 1: to live? Could you fit it in? Come on, because
Speaker 1: that's one of the beds ye under, thank you. It's
Speaker 1: the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two,
Speaker 1: we found out something super disgusting about Lunchbox. He eats
Speaker 1: while he's on the bathroom toilet, said you, yep, yep,
Speaker 1: I said it. That is exactly what we found out
Speaker 1: about him. Eddie Bobby caught him in the bathroom. He
Speaker 1: was eating a protein bar while in the bathroom. Yes,
Speaker 1: this was a real thing. Like I don't know how,
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but here it is number six,
Speaker 1: Lunchbox eats food in the bathroom while he's going to
Speaker 1: the bathroom. And I know why. Yeah, man, I've happened
Speaker 1: twice now where I walk in the bathroom and I
Speaker 1: can hear the rapping and like the two insane disgusting.
Speaker 1: Sitting on the toilet disgusting. What's the point? Why can't
Speaker 1: you eat not in the bathroom? Well, I mean if
Speaker 1: we only have a limited amount of time, don't have
Speaker 1: limited time. You you're gone for twenty minutes sometimes, but
Speaker 1: I'm hungry man, so I'd be gone for twenty five
Speaker 1: Maybe you gotta cut into it. But you don't think
Speaker 1: that's disgusting. I'm not sticking in the toilet. What I'm
Speaker 1: not sticking the food in the toilet. You're not dipping it, right,
Speaker 1: I'm not dipping it in the water like water down.
Speaker 1: I just wonder if I'm the only one, like, what
Speaker 1: is explained to me? What could be wrong with that eating?
Speaker 1: You ever hear this saying don't eat where you poop,
Speaker 1: Like there's a real reason. I mean, it just can't
Speaker 1: be healthy. Well, your gross, your your toothbrush is in
Speaker 1: the bathroom. Yeah, but I put the lid down when
Speaker 1: I flush, and there's also a door so it doesn't
Speaker 1: the particles don't flush over the top of the toothbrush
Speaker 1: if just one. Yeah, it's also the image of like
Speaker 1: in out. That's a tough one too. Yeah. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of maybe maybe everybody don't think this
Speaker 1: is great. I done eating while you're going to the bathroom?
Speaker 1: Gross or not? Amy gross? Yeah? Gross? I mean Eddie gross, disgusting,
Speaker 1: Morgan gross, Ray disgusting, a gross. Okay, just make it sure.
Speaker 1: It's called multitasking, you guys, turn not a multitasking you
Speaker 1: guys talk about haven't being efficient with your time? We'll
Speaker 1: go what boom, because this is the only way that
Speaker 1: you multitask or have any sort of efficiency. One stone?
Speaker 1: Do you do this at home? Yeah? No, two birds,
Speaker 1: one protein bar? Okay, yeah too, that's fine. But that's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like you're hungry, Like, let's say you
Speaker 1: get done working out, Bob, when you got to go
Speaker 1: to the bathroom, you need that protein bar going the bathroom,
Speaker 1: eat it while you're going to the bathroom. No, I
Speaker 1: got to the bathroom, watch my hands, I come out
Speaker 1: and then I eat. Well, I don't Why does it
Speaker 1: always bathroom stuff with him? It's like what Keith Urban
Speaker 1: was washing his hands and he goes into the bathroom
Speaker 1: to hang out with him, and he shared the sink
Speaker 1: with they're watching hands. It's a single person sink because
Speaker 1: it's a tiny sink and he puts his hands in
Speaker 1: with Keith Urban. Yeah that was pretty cool. But I'm
Speaker 1: just saying I don't see anything wrong with it. I've
Speaker 1: done it my whole life. You sit on the pot
Speaker 1: and you eat my stomach. P Morgan, Will you put
Speaker 1: this pole up on the website? Yeah? By will You're
Speaker 1: gonna be surprised. Maybe I will be surprised. You wait,
Speaker 1: a miracle will speak. A lot of people don't have time, man,
Speaker 1: but you have time for everything, and you go you
Speaker 1: don't multitask anything that's actually worthy of efficiency. Well, you
Speaker 1: just made a noise. It made nothing there. I was
Speaker 1: gonna say facebook chat and do the show, but I'm
Speaker 1: in Facebook chatting lately. So it's the best bits of
Speaker 1: the week with Morgan. Number two, we had Ernest stop
Speaker 1: by the studio and it was super fun to hear
Speaker 1: from him. He's so insanely talented in a lot of ways,
Speaker 1: not only as an artist but also as a songwriter.
Speaker 1: He's written songs with Jelly Roll, Kane Brown, of course,
Speaker 1: Morgan Wall and so many more. But he shared some
Speaker 1: of the stories behind those songs that we now know
Speaker 1: as hit songs. So these were the stories behind him
Speaker 1: and he also talked about the deluxe album that he
Speaker 1: has coming up of Flower Shops, and there's thirteen brand
Speaker 1: new songs on it, which is wild for a deluxe album.
Speaker 1: Most of the time a deluxe includes like three, maybe
Speaker 1: two new songs, but no, not Ernest. He put out
Speaker 1: thirteen new songs with this deluxe album. So check out
Speaker 1: this interview. You're gonna love it. Ernest. It's such a
Speaker 1: good guy, or as some people in Nashville call him,
Speaker 1: Earns number five. If you don't know him by his
Speaker 1: name his face, you'd know him by a ton of
Speaker 1: number one songs he's written for other people. Wasted on
Speaker 1: You from Morgan Wallen Breaking up was easy in the
Speaker 1: nineties from Sam Hunt more than my hometown. From Morgan Wallen.
Speaker 1: I could keep going, but I won't right now. But
Speaker 1: also born and raised in Nashville, started playing guitar and
Speaker 1: banjo at like nine ten years old. It's almost like
Speaker 1: I love country music but also love to rap a
Speaker 1: little bit. He's got this song here flower Shops with
Speaker 1: Morgan Wallen right now. He's got a new album out today,
Speaker 1: and he's here. Here is Ernest. The Friday Morning Conversation
Speaker 1: with Ernest going to see you, buddy. He's good to
Speaker 1: see you too, Bobby. For everybody out there, this is
Speaker 1: all Hour Shops with Morgan Wallen. A little song you
Speaker 1: may know, the jam by the way, thank You, and
Speaker 1: the record is out, but now you put out like
Speaker 1: a second half to this record. It's a lot of songs.
Speaker 1: So the deluxe album, how many more songs you put
Speaker 1: out today? Thirteen? Why continue this? Yeah, I just was.
Speaker 1: I never stopped writing in that world when I finished
Speaker 1: the Flowershops album, just kept writing. I love the way
Speaker 1: it sounds. I like, it was just fun writing those
Speaker 1: songs and looked up six or seven months later and
Speaker 1: had a bunch of them and instead of naming a
Speaker 1: new album and doing a whole new thing with similar
Speaker 1: sounding songs and storylines, yeah, I just wanted to do
Speaker 1: a part two thing. I never find even money in
Speaker 1: my pocket. This guy found like twelve new songs for
Speaker 1: a whole album, like I never just find a five.
Speaker 1: And you're like, well, I got twelve or thirteen, So
Speaker 1: two dozen roses. The deluxe versions out today with Ernest
Speaker 1: and I just want to give you some sample here
Speaker 1: of what kind of songwriter he is. So you go
Speaker 1: check this out, but he's written a lot of songs
Speaker 1: that you would know and love, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: Jelly Rolls Son of a Center, right, could you play that?
Speaker 1: So Jelly Rolls, you guys are similar in that, you know,
Speaker 1: Jelly roll is the hip hop artist too, but he's
Speaker 1: for real deal country music. Same thing with you. I
Speaker 1: mean you look at you, you're for sure a country yeah,
Speaker 1: but you also can rap. Yeah yeah, Jelly Rolls, you
Speaker 1: know he I looked up to him when I was
Speaker 1: in high school as a rapper in Nashville, and the
Speaker 1: fact that we've been able to go from where we
Speaker 1: came from to having a song on country radio is
Speaker 1: just it's the beauty and the magic in Nashville for sure.
Speaker 1: One Mississippi from Kane Brown. I'm telling you he's so versatile.
Speaker 1: What about you and Kane? This one here? Did you
Speaker 1: get this to Kane or how did this work? Kane?
Speaker 1: Kane had a session with Jesse Frazier and he brought
Speaker 1: in Levan, a guy they just like messaged them, right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: It was Levan's first right in Nashville, and we wrote
Speaker 1: One Mississippi and I told Lavon I think after that
Speaker 1: day I was like, just know this never happened. You
Speaker 1: don't just come to town to write a number one
Speaker 1: song like that doesn't happen. Ernest is in studio. I
Speaker 1: want to play what have I Got to Lose? Now?
Speaker 1: And I picked? I like, did you pick that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I did? Thank you? Well, I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know why you would thank me,
Speaker 1: because there something about this song you want to tell me.
Speaker 1: I wrote it with Dean Dilon. It's featuring Dean Dillon
Speaker 1: is super special to me. I love this song. You
Speaker 1: didn't have to say that super fast. You could have
Speaker 1: said it slow right, smoke a cigar and here here
Speaker 1: is what have I got to lose? So when you
Speaker 1: talk about Dean Dillon, So I watched Dean Dillon do
Speaker 1: a songwriting session and he was talking about writing songs
Speaker 1: for George Strait and it's gotta be so cool. This
Speaker 1: is like when you say, wow, Dean Dillon, like you're
Speaker 1: writing with a guy who wrote songs for George Straight
Speaker 1: and Toby Keith and all the legends, right yeah. And
Speaker 1: he was telling a story about how George Strait called
Speaker 1: him and said, Dana needs some songs, and Dean Dylon.
Speaker 1: You gotta think of like old western Dean Dalan's got
Speaker 1: long hair, mustache, cowboy hat. I don't know, maybe seventy.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Hold Dean Dylan, is you think he's seventy?
Speaker 1: He's timeless? Okay, timeless, that's all. And Dean Dylan's like, well,
Speaker 1: I got some songs. I got this song called the Chair,
Speaker 1: I got this song. And George's like, just get out here.
Speaker 1: And so Dean said, we're picked up, described her crap.
Speaker 1: George said, where are you when you come back? He goes,
Speaker 1: I ain't telling you where I am, and who knows
Speaker 1: if I'll ever come back. Yeah, he said, but we
Speaker 1: got our stuff. We drove out and he said George
Speaker 1: needed some songs. He goes, you know, I didn't like
Speaker 1: funny songs. I don't like funny songs, he said, but
Speaker 1: this has made me a lot of money. And then
Speaker 1: he goes into I got some motion property man. So
Speaker 1: for you to write that, to write with him, that's awesome, dude. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was like a bucket list dream come true to
Speaker 1: get to write with Dean. And so it was a
Speaker 1: shot in the dark to see if he wanted to
Speaker 1: feature on it. Just because I couldn't stop listening to
Speaker 1: the voice note from that day of Dean just picking
Speaker 1: through it. So yeah, I like, would you please sing
Speaker 1: this second verse? And he was honored too, and we've
Speaker 1: become kind of good budds through that, Isn't that What's
Speaker 1: crazy about this world is you have relationships with people
Speaker 1: that you almost get giddy talking about that you even
Speaker 1: know them. Yeah, that's how I mean, Dean Dillon, I
Speaker 1: just went into a story. I just get so excited
Speaker 1: talking about that part of country music. Yeah, like the
Speaker 1: old school that. Yeah, the stuff that I cut my
Speaker 1: teeth on before I even knew who Dean Dylan was.
Speaker 1: So it was kind of like getting star struck all
Speaker 1: over again. And then sitting in there and listening to
Speaker 1: his voice on it. You hear how influential he was
Speaker 1: on George Strait's career vocally, And guys that are cutting
Speaker 1: a Dean Dylan song want to sing it like Dean,
Speaker 1: which is like the ultimate respect as a songwriter because
Speaker 1: they want to do the song it's most justice. Well,
Speaker 1: he doesn't do funny songs, but he don't made a
Speaker 1: whole lot of money on that. Yeah, Okay, Ernest is
Speaker 1: here We're gonna come back with him in a second
Speaker 1: two dozen Roses. The Deluxe version is out today, track
Speaker 1: twelve through twenty four. Or just if you didn't you
Speaker 1: haven't checked out the record already, should check it out
Speaker 1: because I want to play flower shops here. But then
Speaker 1: there are twelve new songs. I think the math's riding
Speaker 1: that twelve thirteen new songs. Yeah, like I said, I
Speaker 1: think you have chickens at your house, I do, Thank
Speaker 1: you Delaney. She has eight chickens, eight and always had chickens.
Speaker 1: This is a new thing. She had chickens when she
Speaker 1: was a kid. Her mom had chickens, but um, you know,
Speaker 1: we had the garden going and the garden was popping,
Speaker 1: and she was like, I think I want chickens. Is
Speaker 1: there an egg like um overload at your house. There's
Speaker 1: about to be we have we have a lot of eggs,
Speaker 1: like we'd probably get eight a week now, but only
Speaker 1: one chickens laying. So it's about to be We're about
Speaker 1: to be the neighborhood plugs. Well know what it's like
Speaker 1: to have a bunch of chickens around. Growing up in Arkansas.
Speaker 1: When you have chickens, there's two there's just so many
Speaker 1: eggs are begging people to take eggs, yes constantly, Yeah
Speaker 1: you want some eggs, Hey you want some eggs? How
Speaker 1: about you need eggs? Yeah? So I never met you?
Speaker 1: So yeah, So you've been married for how long? Five
Speaker 1: five years? And your child is named after a very
Speaker 1: famous country music landmark here in town, the Ryman Auditorium, Right,
Speaker 1: young Ryman. Whenever you guys were discussing the name, whose
Speaker 1: idea was it and was there any pushed back at all? Um?
Speaker 1: Not really. My last name is Smith, so we had
Speaker 1: to get interesting on the first first half of it,
Speaker 1: and her last name being Royer, we were playing with
Speaker 1: different r names and Ryman a it's a great place.
Speaker 1: But I just think it's a Nashville staple and it
Speaker 1: speaks well and it has a holiness to it. So
Speaker 1: his full name is Ryman, Saint Smith. If you ever
Speaker 1: wanted to do this, he could just be Ryman's Saint. So,
Speaker 1: I don't know Ryman Ryman. Just as soon as we
Speaker 1: said it out loud, it was like, that's cool. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is cool. I just wonder if there was ever like,
Speaker 1: I don't know man, should we call him Rhyman? Should
Speaker 1: call him Oprey, Oprey. He's a good dog. Name that
Speaker 1: is Ernest is in studio with us. He's got a
Speaker 1: new record that's out today. Though, before we get to
Speaker 1: a new song, just some other songs, because Ernest has
Speaker 1: written so many number ones for way other for a
Speaker 1: bunch of people too. Breaking up was easy in the
Speaker 1: nineties from Sam Hunt. A lot of people say Sam
Speaker 1: Is when he writes, is so particular and it takes
Speaker 1: him a long time because he is a perfectionist. What
Speaker 1: can you lend to that. I've had both experiences with Sam.
Speaker 1: I've had days where me and Charlie Handsome in him
Speaker 1: went in for maybe six months and just every few
Speaker 1: days he'd show up by Big Loud and we'd write.
Speaker 1: And a bunch of those ideas were just verse chorus
Speaker 1: ideas that never got finished or that maybe will one day.
Speaker 1: And then for this song, we had a cabin in
Speaker 1: Franklin and we wrote it like a classic two and
Speaker 1: a half hour. Sam had the Sam had the idea
Speaker 1: jotted in his journal. He's a pen writer and he
Speaker 1: had Breaking up was easy in the nineties and like
Speaker 1: some melody started pouring out. We straight up just sat
Speaker 1: and wrote the song. And had a demo by the
Speaker 1: end of the day. So what's it like to have
Speaker 1: a melody pour out? If a melody's coming to me easily,
Speaker 1: it's like a puzzle. I can kind of feel where
Speaker 1: it's all going. So you'll, let's say where we're gonna
Speaker 1: just bear with me for a second, like our audience
Speaker 1: to kind of feel a bit of what it's like
Speaker 1: to write a song. Okay, So you and I it's
Speaker 1: ten am. We've decided we're gonna write today. We've kind
Speaker 1: of set aside ten to three, Yeah, to write. That's
Speaker 1: that seems to kind of ten o'clock. And I come
Speaker 1: in and I've got like six ideas. I'm excited because
Speaker 1: I get to write with Ernest Hey, multi hitmaker. Not
Speaker 1: only that he's got two dozen rows of that deluxe
Speaker 1: versions out today. I haven't say that in the writing
Speaker 1: session to get I'm like, hey man, great job. So
Speaker 1: I pull out my notes here and um, for example,
Speaker 1: there's a song that I have an idea for where
Speaker 1: I got trapped into Sephora. It's called a Loan in
Speaker 1: Sephora where I got law. I think Keith Urban texts
Speaker 1: me that, um, I saw his wife Nicole come in
Speaker 1: there and he said she saw you alone in Sephora
Speaker 1: and I was like, well, that's that's there's the time embarrassing.
Speaker 1: So I wrote that down, so let's we were to
Speaker 1: say it was serious. And I was like, okay, I
Speaker 1: have this idea called a loan and Sephora, and I
Speaker 1: really want to cap sure that I shouldn't be there.
Speaker 1: And it feels kind of awkward. Okay, the smells aren't
Speaker 1: really what I'm accustomed to, and everybody's looking at me
Speaker 1: like why are you. I wasn't buying anything I don't
Speaker 1: do with my hands, right, I ain't even there for you,
Speaker 1: just alone and Sephora. So I say, now we're on
Speaker 1: something smells kind of funny. I feel kind of weird
Speaker 1: all of this makeup, and I'm growing a beard boom
Speaker 1: dang somewhere and some more with no plan at all,
Speaker 1: and I ain't even here for you. I'm just aloning Sephorah.
Speaker 1: I mean, so that's that's how I write. That's a melody,
Speaker 1: and then you collect the check and that's it. Dang.
Speaker 1: I love my country one that he wrote with Floria
Speaker 1: Georgia line here you go with Morgan Wallam more than
Speaker 1: my hometown. How many songs you think you Morgan Walla,
Speaker 1: just guess rough number, not gonna hold you to it
Speaker 1: more than twenty, Yeah, I'd say like seventy. How many
Speaker 1: are good? Realistically there's probably a good idea and fifty
Speaker 1: of them, And how many are great? I think ninety
Speaker 1: eight percent of the songs that he's cut that we
Speaker 1: wrote are great songs. What about him? And you vibe
Speaker 1: so well when you write? We both kind of do
Speaker 1: the same thing, like I just did, Like we're both
Speaker 1: down to pivot so fast. If another idea pops up
Speaker 1: in the middle of the first one, and it just
Speaker 1: never it never feels like a writing session. We're just
Speaker 1: kicking it and music's happening. Ernest is here, Flower Shops
Speaker 1: two dozen Roses, a deluxe version out today, new songs
Speaker 1: that come out the second half of the original album.
Speaker 1: Pick a song here that you'd like to tell me about,
Speaker 1: because obviously I have them all and I have my thoughts.
Speaker 1: At last break, I talked about one of mine. What
Speaker 1: do you want to talk about here? I chose this Fire.
Speaker 1: It's the first song on the deluxe And like, but
Speaker 1: you mean like track twelve or thirteen? Yeah, right, and
Speaker 1: on the vinyl it will be the beginning of the
Speaker 1: B sides. So wrote this with Julian Bonetta, Rocky Block,
Speaker 1: John Ryan, and we didn't know what we were going
Speaker 1: to write. But there's this thing called AI and Julian
Speaker 1: was like, let's just put in country song titles on
Speaker 1: AI and there was a list of like twenty songs
Speaker 1: and this fire was like the second one, so I
Speaker 1: was like cool, So we just started playing around. Um,
Speaker 1: Illegal Smile was a song I've been listening to a
Speaker 1: good bit mister John Pryn and it's kind of got
Speaker 1: a cool tempo change or field change. So we kind
Speaker 1: of ran with it and and it sets the scenery
Speaker 1: for the rest of the thirteen songs or whatever it is.
Speaker 1: Here is this fire from Ernest. It's good man, thank you,
Speaker 1: that's good who because you used to be the guy

Speaker 1: of the songwriter, the songwriter artist is back, which I
Speaker 1: love because people are gonna be telling their own stories.

Speaker 1: alone and Sephora with no penalties or lawsuits soon. All right,
Speaker 1: get the record there, he is honest, everybody. It's the
Speaker 1: best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two, a
Speaker 1: listener called into the show and wanted to know what
Speaker 1: animated characters do the show most look alike after she
Speaker 1: watched the show and thought Bobby looked like this very
Speaker 1: specific animated character. So Mikey did some comparisons and he
Speaker 1: came up with some things that are party spot on
Speaker 1: for some people and interesting for others, but definitely check
Speaker 1: it out. And I'm still very honored that one of
Speaker 1: our listeners on the Facebook page said, I looked like
Speaker 1: the Lizzie McGuire cartoon. Not Lizzie McGuire from the TV show,
Speaker 1: but if you watch that TV show, she had her
Speaker 1: own little animated cartoon character that came in and out
Speaker 1: of different episodes, and that is apparently who I look like.
Speaker 1: And you know what, I'll take it all day long.
Speaker 1: I love that comparison. Number four a voicemail from Jessica
Speaker 1: and San Diego. I was recently watching a movie with
Speaker 1: my kids at Lampos. I feel like the main character,
Speaker 1: Milosach looks so much like Bobby and has some of
Speaker 1: his mannerism too. So if you had to assign each
Speaker 1: other cartoon characters and you have to come up with
Speaker 1: something different than Doug Funny for Lunchbox, who would everyone be?
Speaker 1: Mike did this last night here? So who Mike depicted
Speaker 1: for me? Steve Smith for American Dad, the Kid the Son. Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: looks just like you. Amy would be Sleeping Beauty. Well,
Speaker 1: that's pretty that's nice. I get Eddie gets Speedy Gonzalez,
Speaker 1: that's messed up. Lunchbox gets Pigpen from Charlie. Charlie Brown,
Speaker 1: the dirty kid. He does look like pig pen, you do.
Speaker 1: That's rude. I don't even know who that is. He's
Speaker 1: got the cloud of dust falling. Raymundo got Mighty Mouse.
Speaker 1: That's funny, and Scuba. Steve got Mister Clean, the cleaning guy,
Speaker 1: but with a beard. Yeah that is okay, Well, that's
Speaker 1: that's that. That's pretty good. I mean the Gonzalez, Hey,
Speaker 1: I didn't do it. I thought Mighty Mouse a little
Speaker 1: more cocoa man. That's me Animations. It's the best bits
Speaker 1: of the week with Morgan number two in the world
Speaker 1: of Lunchbox. He also went to some bathrooms, public bathrooms,
Speaker 1: I should say, not his personal ones at home or
Speaker 1: not at work. He went to some public bathrooms and
Speaker 1: made some confessions while strangers were sitting in the other stalls,
Speaker 1: and he talked a lot about a lot of things.
Speaker 1: Some of it may be true. I don't know. We
Speaker 1: don't actually know where these confessions come from, whether he
Speaker 1: makes them up, whether they're true in his life, who knows.
Speaker 1: But he made some confessions to strangers. And it got
Speaker 1: awkward because you're sitting in a bathroom toilet and somebody's
Speaker 1: talking to you on the other stall. Definitely weird, but
Speaker 1: it happened. Number three, lunchbox, Explain what you're doing here.
Speaker 1: I go into a bathroom and I sit in the stall,
Speaker 1: and then I wait for people to sit in the
Speaker 1: stall next to me on either side, and then I
Speaker 1: knock on the stall and start talking to him. It's
Speaker 1: so awkward. I love it. I have secondary aker. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like I confess things. I asked for opinions, I
Speaker 1: asked for advice. It's really just, you know, it's more
Speaker 1: like confessional. Like you go to the church your Catholic Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't see the person, so you just talk to
Speaker 1: her about life the person, Yeah, the priest. So Lunchblox
Speaker 1: does bathroom confessions. This is the Las Vegas. You don't
Speaker 1: know what they're gonna say. While he was in Vegas,
Speaker 1: he went into a public restroom, sat in stall and
Speaker 1: just knocked, hoping he'd get a response. Here is confession
Speaker 1: number one, Stall three, when I've install four question for
Speaker 1: you that so like, I've been wearing my wife's underwear
Speaker 1: for like a month and it's like really comfortable. But
Speaker 1: she keeps she doesn't know, and she's always like, man,
Speaker 1: I can't find my underwear, And I'm like, should I
Speaker 1: tell her if she's gonna find that weird? What's that? Well?
Speaker 1: I mean I want you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: I wear a different pair and then I wash it,
Speaker 1: and you know, she's like, oh I found it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Do you think that's weird? It's an unusual. Do you
Speaker 1: ever wear your wife's underwear? Do you want me to
Speaker 1: slide you a pair of my wife's under the stall?
Speaker 1: Are you sure you can try it on? You? Leaving?
Speaker 1: I have a great one. Man. I hope I didn't
Speaker 1: make an awkward Yeah, all right, cool man probably made
Speaker 1: that would cut it on early it wasn't done. Yep.
Speaker 1: I want to want to talk to anybody in there.
Speaker 1: All right, here's this one is fringey two. Because he
Speaker 1: asked for help. I go ahead, Stall four? What's up it?
Speaker 1: Stall five? Oh man, my shoe came on time. I
Speaker 1: was worried if I slided or if you can tie
Speaker 1: it for me. I'm busy wiping. Oh no, just tie
Speaker 1: it real quick. I'm sorry. I mean, I'm just I'm
Speaker 1: in the middle wiping and I can't. I'm just seeing
Speaker 1: if you could help me. I didn't want to make
Speaker 1: it awkward. I'm sorry. Are you leaving? Yeah? Are you
Speaker 1: gonna tie my shoe? No? Oh? Are you sure? Are
Speaker 1: you still there? Four? I mean he's gonna beat up, Yes,
Speaker 1: he is. One of these days you're gonna walk out
Speaker 1: and just get I mean, what was that? Not funny? Shoe?
Speaker 1: People put their foot under the stalls some time to
Speaker 1: hook up, right, Yes, I'm not slid my shoe. That's
Speaker 1: the move, right, yeah, yeah, I don't know remember that one? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah the congressman. Yeah, well that's the move. If you
Speaker 1: if you're in a stall and you slide your foot
Speaker 1: under and you're like wiggle it, that means if they
Speaker 1: wiggle back rendezvous, it's time to go. Yeah, but this
Speaker 1: I was asking for a shoe tie, and that means
Speaker 1: you might think you whatever I mean, he was upping
Speaker 1: out bathroom confession. Thank you, lunchbox, You're welcome. Crune meter
Speaker 1: seven and a half. Seven and a half. It's the
Speaker 1: best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two, we
Speaker 1: heard all about Bobby's time in Pebble Beach for the
Speaker 1: golf tournament. Not only did he meet some crazy celebrities
Speaker 1: and have a great time, he also accidentally hit a
Speaker 1: girl in the face with his golf ball. Yeah, a
Speaker 1: whole thing happened. And he shared on the show this
Speaker 1: week if he may or may not get sued. I
Speaker 1: believe that was on one of our podcasts. That's not
Speaker 1: this segment right here, but he talked about like if
Speaker 1: there's a potential for him to get sued, And that's
Speaker 1: kind of interesting to hear about too, because dang, there
Speaker 1: is kind of a liability. But apparently not, he's not
Speaker 1: getting sued anytime soon. So you can hear his stories
Speaker 1: from Pebble Beach, and of course that one on the
Speaker 1: post show from this week. But this is Bobby talking
Speaker 1: about playing Golf's Ray Romano number two. Yeah, so what
Speaker 1: was really cool last week? I went over and I'm
Speaker 1: not a good golfer, never grew up around golf. We
Speaker 1: didn't really have golf where I grew up. So I
Speaker 1: get to go do this thing over in northern California,
Speaker 1: like mon Terray Pebble Beach. Only thought i'd ever see
Speaker 1: it on TV. And I go and like I got
Speaker 1: to be friends with Ray Romano. Oh yeah, I saw that.
Speaker 1: That's cool. It was so cool, and don't I don't
Speaker 1: even want to like we get We talked about it a
Speaker 1: a little bit on the Post Show yesterday because I
Speaker 1: don't want it to feel like I'm bragging. But mostly
Speaker 1: it's like I can't believe it. But there were so
Speaker 1: many cool stories. But I'll tell you this one time.
Speaker 1: And I took Eddie with me because I've also learned
Speaker 1: that nothing that I do is fine if I don't
Speaker 1: get to take somebody that I just love. And I
Speaker 1: do love you, Eddie, I love you too. That if
Speaker 1: that it's not fun unless they get to do it
Speaker 1: with you. And so I take Eddie and we're playing
Speaker 1: this little thing and Ray Romondo and I are on
Speaker 1: a team, unless like on TV, the people just stand
Speaker 1: all around the green like really close, way too close,
Speaker 1: especially for an amateur. I'm not good at golf. I'm okay,
Speaker 1: I'm not good, and so I hit a ball in
Speaker 1: the air and it's okay, it's pretty good, but it's
Speaker 1: a little over the people. It's like eight foot off
Speaker 1: to the side of the green. If we were just
Speaker 1: playing ourselves, I'd be like, heck of a shot at me,
Speaker 1: and it lands, and then all of a sudden it
Speaker 1: starts to roll toward the whole. And then golf it's
Speaker 1: very composed. You're supposed to be like, thankle golf plant,
Speaker 1: but I don't do that. I was running through. I
Speaker 1: just happy hit a good shot in front of people,
Speaker 1: because I get so nervous. I'm not running down giving
Speaker 1: everybody five let's go. I come back and somebody goes, hey,
Speaker 1: I think you hit somebody with the ball, and that's
Speaker 1: why it rolled over to the green, and I was like, wait,
Speaker 1: what I mean? I was going crazy. I was so
Speaker 1: happy that ball rolled like four feet from the hole,
Speaker 1: and so I said, what do you mean? So Eddie
Speaker 1: and I walked down there. I had a girl right
Speaker 1: in the face with the ball, and in her face
Speaker 1: was swollen. She had an ice pack on. It's on
Speaker 1: my Instagram now. And it wasn't a bout a shot.
Speaker 1: I just want to say that again. It was for me.
Speaker 1: It was a pretty good shot, but hit her right
Speaker 1: in the face. And so I said what happened and
Speaker 1: she goes, oh, I wasn't. The deal was there were
Speaker 1: a lot of like real celebrities there and when I
Speaker 1: was hitting, she didn't care because I'm not a celebrity
Speaker 1: to her, and so she wasn't watching. And the balls
Speaker 1: went whack right in her face and it rolled, It
Speaker 1: bounced off her, rolled right to the hole. It was amazing.
Speaker 1: I mean not amazing. It was terrible. But I went
Speaker 1: over to her talked to her. I was like, are
Speaker 1: you good. She's like, I'm good. Face just swallen. And
Speaker 1: I got one of these big signs and I signed it,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry I hit you in the face. PS. It
Speaker 1: was a pretty good shot though, And then I and
Speaker 1: then I happened. After Bucks, somebody randomly gave me a
Speaker 1: friend earlier that day, Jimmy, and I gave it to
Speaker 1: her and I was like, thanks for the help, but
Speaker 1: it's really scary hitting into people. Oh, I'm sure that's
Speaker 1: why I'm not going to be a pro golfer. I'm
Speaker 1: saying it now that I would be a pro golfer.
Speaker 1: But I had a great experience. And if you listen
Speaker 1: to the post show yesterday, I talked about it a
Speaker 1: little bit. It was so I tell you. The coolest
Speaker 1: part was, I don't know if you know who Steve
Speaker 1: Young is. We played a quarterback for the forty nine
Speaker 1: ers Hall of Famer. Do you know who that is? Really? Yeah,
Speaker 1: he asked for a picture with me. What exactly? I
Speaker 1: couldn't believe it. Why exactly? I thought it was a
Speaker 1: joke for real? Yes, he listens to the show? Oh oky?
Speaker 1: Now also quick question back to the ball. If it
Speaker 1: hadn't hit her face and actually rolled in, would that
Speaker 1: be a hole in? Would that's right? And it would
Speaker 1: count yep, even though it hit her face, because it
Speaker 1: it's a tree if it's anything, okay, wow? Oh no,
Speaker 1: that's why I started celebrating. I thought it hit like
Speaker 1: a hill or something. Oh. I was going hard. I
Speaker 1: was giving people fives running through I thought I was
Speaker 1: King Dingling of the golf golf spot. And then I
Speaker 1: came back and they're like, bro, yea somebody in the face.
Speaker 1: But it's on my Instagram. But that's what's up. We're here.
Speaker 1: We live and learn, don't we Yeah, we do. And
Speaker 1: I learned say everybody back away, I'm hitting. I did
Speaker 1: be Aaron Rodgers though in a game though too. I
Speaker 1: hate anybody in the face. So like you could, can
Speaker 1: you go up to the thing and say, okay, step back?
Speaker 1: I mean you can, probably won't. It's the best bits
Speaker 1: of the week with Morgan number two and also in
Speaker 1: that world of cool things Bobby's gotten to do this
Speaker 1: past weekend, he co hosted the Grammys on E and
Speaker 1: he got to talk to a whole lot of people,
Speaker 1: Shannaia Twain my idol, being one of them. I love her.
Speaker 1: He talked to her. He talked to a whole lot
Speaker 1: of different people at Brandy Carlisle. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: exciting people that stopped by. And he got to wear
Speaker 1: a really cool suit jacket and when I say really cool,
Speaker 1: I mean a four thousand dollars one. Then he talked
Speaker 1: about it was like the first opening thing you mentioned
Speaker 1: while he was on the red carpet, but he talked
Speaker 1: about that experience what it was like out in California
Speaker 1: for those, which was right after his Pebble Beach golf tournament.
Speaker 1: So he came back pretty tired. He had done a
Speaker 1: lot of things. But this is Bobby talking about his
Speaker 1: time co hosting The Grammy's Red Carpet on each number one.
Speaker 1: I want to say this. I didn't watch a single
Speaker 1: bit of the Grammy's last night. I don't even know
Speaker 1: who won. I finished my part, did the Red Carpet.
Speaker 1: I walked off, got in a car, got in a plane,
Speaker 1: came right home, landed at one thirty or two this morning,
Speaker 1: came here, did the show, and that was it. So
Speaker 1: I don't know anything that happened. But did you guys
Speaker 1: watch the Grammys? No? No, your part, but that's it?
Speaker 1: Oh thanks, Yeah, red Carpet, that's it. I watched a
Speaker 1: little bit of the I watched the Red Carpet, and
Speaker 1: then I watched a little bit of the Grammys because
Speaker 1: I wanted to see, Okay, what are we gonna do here?
Speaker 1: First two performers. I was like, all right, what does
Speaker 1: start with bad Bunny? Okay? But in Spanish, in Spanish,
Speaker 1: that's what's up? Yeah, I guess you know Bad Bunny
Speaker 1: is the most streamed artist of the world. I learned
Speaker 1: that on the Red Carpet because I don't know Spanish though,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. I didn't know Spanish, so I
Speaker 1: had no idea what was going on. I was like,
Speaker 1: but I do watch Lost in German and I like it.
Speaker 1: So if somehow they could do Spanish and I could
Speaker 1: read the subtitles while I was listening, but even then
Speaker 1: that'd be weird. Yeah, I will say my kids liked
Speaker 1: Bad Bunny, like they because his name is Bunny though no,
Speaker 1: just because they didn't know him. No, they've just danced
Speaker 1: to the music. Um. And then the next person was
Speaker 1: the girl you interviewed on the Red Carpet, which I
Speaker 1: don't know her, Brandy Carlisle. Brandy Carlisle is awesome. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's sang was she good? Fine? Whatever? I didn't know
Speaker 1: the song. Yeah, I was like, cool, you're also not
Speaker 1: a big music person. Yeah, that's and I'm the first
Speaker 1: two performers. I was like, man, that's really in the
Speaker 1: show for me, Like, I'm there whatever, I want to
Speaker 1: see something cool. But then I did watch the Chris
Speaker 1: Stapleton with Stevie wonder was that good? That was so cool?
Speaker 1: So cool? Yeah, I saw none of it. So Scooba,
Speaker 1: did you watch some performances I did. Yeah, I saw
Speaker 1: the fifty Years of Hip Hop, which that was awesome.
Speaker 1: Was it good? Yeah? One thing I was confused about,
Speaker 1: maybe you guys can shed light night. I don't want
Speaker 1: to start any controversy here, but I was watching the
Speaker 1: country category, which I hadn't really cared about until years,
Speaker 1: and I saw the artists who I recognized their albums,
Speaker 1: like Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Mary Morris, and then they
Speaker 1: go Willie Nelson. I'm like, only Nelson, no disrespect. Guys
Speaker 1: got an incredible career, never knew he had an album out,
Speaker 1: and then he wins. I feel terrible for the people
Speaker 1: who Well. The difference is the Grammys are a committee
Speaker 1: of people who just sit in a room and select, like, oh,
Speaker 1: I know Willie Nelson. Check no, but yeah, will he's
Speaker 1: getting old. Yeah. But that's not the only reason. I
Speaker 1: swear to God, it's not. If he would have died,
Speaker 1: I would have said probably, but he didn't die. There
Speaker 1: were some of those. I saw a few of those
Speaker 1: that happened last night. For example, song of the Year.
Speaker 1: Overall Song of the Year went to Bonnie Rate just
Speaker 1: like that, against a bunch of big, massive pop songs too.
Speaker 1: So what's happening is, for the most part, people vote
Speaker 1: on the Grammys, but if the little boardroom people don't
Speaker 1: agree on it at least hot this is how it
Speaker 1: used to be, they'll change it. Wow. Okay, so I
Speaker 1: felt terrible. I saw Luca all excited and then they
Speaker 1: were just completely defeated. Inflatable. And it's not based on
Speaker 1: streams or or anything. It's just really based on who
Speaker 1: The Grammys are known as a cultural we're culturally better
Speaker 1: and sometimes we don't go with what I mean. I
Speaker 1: bet your best new artists I haven't looked yet is
Speaker 1: somebody we don't know. Samara Joy until this, I didn't
Speaker 1: know every well. I believe she's a jazz singer and
Speaker 1: she's awesome, but I would never have stumbled onto her
Speaker 1: had I not been doing research for my role. The
Speaker 1: Grammys try to use their platform to celebrate music that
Speaker 1: isn't just commercially viable and successful, but also the people
Speaker 1: that they select to be the gatekeepers as well as
Speaker 1: the voters. They want them to pick it based on
Speaker 1: the quality and integrity of it, and I respect that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but this category felt a little weird about. I can
Speaker 1: understand why that would be. People were getting upset it
Speaker 1: for the same exact reason about Bonnie Rate winning Song
Speaker 1: of the Year, because it was up against like Harry
Speaker 1: Styles and other songs. You know. Yeah, so, but the
Speaker 1: Grammys they're known for that. I think I've spoken out
Speaker 1: a couple of times before about how the Grammys there
Speaker 1: are times whenever things are happening culturally, and the Grammys
Speaker 1: will make sure to reflect that culturally with their award winning. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it'd be awesome to get a Grammy. And if
Speaker 1: they want me to come hosted, I love them. If
Speaker 1: they don't, well I got a problem with them. Now
Speaker 1: I don't. But that's that's really why they don't really
Speaker 1: go let's look at numbers of people who stream music.
Speaker 1: They just try to go, what do we really thinks
Speaker 1: the best? And what does the people who vote? Who
Speaker 1: have to be an elevated You can't just vote, you
Speaker 1: can't get online and vote. You have to be in
Speaker 1: an elevated position. It's a Grammy, like I get to vote. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I don't even know who they are sometimes I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't even vote people in office. I don't know
Speaker 1: who they are, which is good because you don't want
Speaker 1: to be voting, right. Yeah, but who Scooba is saying?
Speaker 1: When I saw that category and the winner, I just thought, man,
Speaker 1: that's a hey man, thanks for everything you've done for
Speaker 1: country music. Thing like, well, this could be your last album.
Speaker 1: I would disagree. They gave Bonnie Rate the Lifetime Achievement
Speaker 1: Award last year. I know, but I'm saying they can
Speaker 1: do that to Willie if they wanted to say thank
Speaker 1: you for everything. They can't given a Willie a Lifetime
Speaker 1: Achievement Award this year. But that wasn't that. They must
Speaker 1: have listened to his record and said, god, dang, that's
Speaker 1: still really good. We must we need to I haven't
Speaker 1: heard it, have you guys heard it? No? But that's
Speaker 1: also what happens where you go and listen to it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And I will say one quick note about you in
Speaker 1: the right car. But I finally got a chance to
Speaker 1: click it on and you're one liner at the end
Speaker 1: with Brett Randy Carlisle's great Mount Rushmore, the Mount Rushmore
Speaker 1: of the greatest singers, there's three of your heads and
Speaker 1: one of Asha McBride. I was like, I say that, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was, it was. It took her by surprise. She
Speaker 1: was like whoa, okay, and her reaction was fantastic And
Speaker 1: they turned back around and smile and you're like, got him,
Speaker 1: And I was that was awesome. Thanks man. I don't
Speaker 1: remember saying that, but it is pretty funny. Huh. They
Speaker 1: did a pretty good job. I like that. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Um yes, I'll step in and not defend the Grammy's,
Speaker 1: but say I think they do their job of really
Speaker 1: highlighting what they feel is that top quality when you
Speaker 1: can't really define a top quality in art. But I
Speaker 1: don't listen to that Willie record either. I will tell
Speaker 1: you this. I became friends with his son, Lucas Nelson
Speaker 1: over that week. First of all, awesome, dude should not
Speaker 1: be as nice as he is because he's so talented.
Speaker 1: And when you're so talented, you can just be on
Speaker 1: the floor and spinning people's faces. So how I do it?
Speaker 1: That dude's awesome as a dude. I've never anything like
Speaker 1: them before singing. Oh yeah, you posted a video of
Speaker 1: him singing in a Mystagram. Oh it's like it's a different,
Speaker 1: it's a different it's like stables and esque. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I can get to that later. Were you at that one,
Speaker 1: Eddie or did you client Lee? I've had a boner
Speaker 1: ever since. Whoa yeah? Really yeah? Oh boy, I'm tired.
Speaker 1: See I just say, desk in front of you. That's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I like a boner from music, not
Speaker 1: like literal for his oh okay, album of the Year,
Speaker 1: Harry's House, Harry Styles. I saw some Swifties. We're upset
Speaker 1: with that, and I get it. But that Harry's House
Speaker 1: album is awesome. It's a great album. I mean I
Speaker 1: know every song on it. I was listening to it
Speaker 1: when it was coming out, but now because I picked it,
Speaker 1: because Kaitlyn picked it, and I was forced to hear it,
Speaker 1: and I would come on the air and be like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna admit to you, it's really good. Is it
Speaker 1: a dead giveaway if they perform that they're it is
Speaker 1: not because and I tell you not. Even at the CMAS. Now,
Speaker 1: there are sometimes where maybe the producers will have a feeling,
Speaker 1: but they are legally locked up and they don't. You.
Speaker 1: People cannot know, even the people at the like Goldenheimer
Speaker 1: and Schmidt whomever are running the company that gets the votes.
Speaker 1: Not even everybody there gets to know. It's like select people,
Speaker 1: and they will stand back. They're locked with the winner
Speaker 1: for a bunch of reasons. But as someone who's presented,
Speaker 1: they would not give me the card even until ninety
Speaker 1: seconds until whatever. So there was no way that I
Speaker 1: could tip somebody off for gambling for all these reasons. Wow,
Speaker 1: I thought that was all drama did too. Now the
Speaker 1: American Music Awards stuff like that, they didn't they know
Speaker 1: people get to go. Then they're like, you're you one,
Speaker 1: so you can perform Grammys, CMAS. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: think probably a CMS, Oscars, Oscars, Emmy's, Tony's. I don't
Speaker 1: know what. Just yelling awards at this point. So I
Speaker 1: don't know. Zes No, that one. I know for sure
Speaker 1: they know um but yeah, no they don't know. Um.
Speaker 1: But Harry, that's a great record of the year, Lizzo, Um,
Speaker 1: I knew it. I guess I don't have a feeling
Speaker 1: about it. I did talk to Bonnie Rate. She was awesome. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I interviewed her. Uh. Samara Joy Best New Artist, she's
Speaker 1: a jazz singer. She's really good. Now, it's not the
Speaker 1: kind of music that I would normally listen to because
Speaker 1: I wouldn't mean she's really good. Do you know who
Speaker 1: else is really good? Who was a jazz singer and
Speaker 1: she's a country singer too? Is Madeline Edwards? Who's going
Speaker 1: to come in and perform? Oh? Do we know when
Speaker 1: she's coming in this week? Okay, and then we'll play
Speaker 1: her this week or next week. Yeah, gosh, she's good.
Speaker 1: I did a bobbycast with her and she was doing
Speaker 1: the voice thing as a jazz singer. That's kind of
Speaker 1: like exactly like that. Oh it sounds really good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thank you. I've been working on my jazz. It's like
Speaker 1: a drowning bird though. I'm telling you, Mike, you remember
Speaker 1: when she did it, and I was just asking for
Speaker 1: an example because she had to like make money, so
Speaker 1: she learned how to do all this kind of singing
Speaker 1: in a restaurant. Wow, that's cool, dude. It's unreal that
Speaker 1: what she can have, what she can do is she's
Speaker 1: gonna do it. Our million dollars Show with Us Willie
Speaker 1: Nelison won Best Country Album, Best Country Duo Group Performance.
Speaker 1: Carly and Ashley McBride Best Country song Cody Johns until
Speaker 1: you can't. That's cool because I always say, when you
Speaker 1: got a dream, chase it, because a dream won't chase
Speaker 1: you back. I stole it from that song Harry Styles,
Speaker 1: Harry's House, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Solo Adele Sam
Speaker 1: Smith Can Petra's Best Pop Performance to a Group, Best
Speaker 1: Performance Brandy Carlisle Broken Horses. I did ask her about
Speaker 1: that song because I liked that song, Broken Horses, and
Speaker 1: I said, why do you record it like that? And
Speaker 1: I think she was a little like huh. And I
Speaker 1: was like, cause you record it and you sing it
Speaker 1: so hard, like she goes hard hard, like, then you
Speaker 1: have to perform it like that every time. And she
Speaker 1: was like, I've never gonna ask that question. And I
Speaker 1: was like, because I'm psychotic, and I wonder I wouldn't
Speaker 1: do it like that because I don't have to perform
Speaker 1: it like that every time. Ozzie Osborne, Kendrick Lamar. Okay,
Speaker 1: well there was the Grammys. It's the best Bits of
Speaker 1: the Week with Morgan number two as usual. I had
Speaker 1: a fabulous time hanging out with y'all this weekend. I mean,
